About the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X175SCA
The AirTAC MBLC50X175SCA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered with a screw-adjustable pneumatic cushion at both stroke ends. Delivering a robust 981 N push force at 0.5 MPa across a 175 mm stroke, it is built for heavier payloads that outpace standard bumpers. The integrated -S magnet enables direct position feedback using AirTAC CMSG reed or DMSG and EMSG solid-state sensor switches.
This variant features a CA pivot clevis back cover that swings on a pin to absorb arcing and angular loads, preventing rod binding. The compact riveted rolling-packed barrel houses a 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod and a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal. Tuning the cushion needle lets you decelerate the piston smoothly near the ends, cutting end-cover impact and vibration without acting as a mechanical load lock.

Where the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X175SCA Is Used
Packaging Folder Mechanism
Drives a carton folding arm at high frequency, using the adjustable air cushion to softly decelerate the 981 N thrust and prevent end-cover impact on rapid reversals.
Pallet Diverting Gate
Pivots a heavy routing gate along a packaging line; the CA clevis accommodates the arcing swing while the 175 mm stroke provides full lane separation.
PCB Test Fixture
Lowers a testing probe head with 881 N of pull force, relying on the -S magnet and DMSG electronic switch to confirm exact insertion depth before actuation.
Is the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X175SCA the Right Cylinder?
Select this 50 mm bore when an application demands 981 N of push force at 0.5 MPa alongside controlled end-of-stroke deceleration. If your move is lighter, stepping down to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push force; if you need more muscle, the 63 mm bore provides 1558 N. Choose this MBLC cushioned model over the base MBL when cycling faster or moving heavier masses that would prematurely wear a fixed rubber bumper. The exact replacement match is bore 50, stroke 175, G1/4 port, PT thread, CA pivot back cover, and an -S magnet. Note that a plain double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost; use an external rod lock for strict position holding. At 175 mm, side-load tolerance is manageable, but always verify angular alignment with the CA clevis.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB / FA / SDB) and back cover (CA pivot / U flat-end).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC50X175SCA FAQ
This 50 mm bore cylinder uses a G1/4 port and a Ø16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 thread. It generates 981 N push and 881 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
A screw-tunable needle traps exhaust air at both stroke ends to decelerate the piston smoothly, protecting the end covers on fast or heavy moves. It is strictly a speed dampener, not a load lock or brake.
